331 runs made in nine games played. The last one to do so, according to gleaned from ESPN Statsit was a certain Michael Jordan in 1990. Further striking is the efficiency of the Booker, which travels with the 70% di true shooting. That’s the highest percentage for a player who has scored more than 300 points in nine games.
Impressive numbers. In two games against the Denver Nuggets, Booker shot 80% and 77.8% from the field, respectively. Almost a sentence, decisive for restoring balance to a series which, in the light of the injury of Chris Paulshe seemed to be in very bad shape.
Booker e Kevin Durant, who travels at lower percentages, but with an average of 30 points per game in the Playoffs, form a literally devastating duo. The Phoenix Suns can dream big if the two continue on these levels. At the same time, to hope to eliminate the Nuggets, the contribution of the supporting cast will be needed.
